Usage notes
[edit]- Sometimes the female equivalent поэте́сса (poetɛ́ssa) is interpreted as not quite equal to the masculine поэ́т (poét). Several famous female Russian poets, notably Anna Akhmatova and Marina Tsvetaeva, insisted on being called поэ́т (poét), and regarded the term поэте́сса (poetɛ́ssa) as insulting.
